The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Rezdy rezdy, Checkfront and Regiondo have shared an owner since 2023, so an operator running a three-way comparison is choosing between products from one company with one roadmap.; RoomRaccoon revenue and upselling functionality is gated behind higher tiers, so the advertised entry price is rarely what a property that wants automated pricing actually pays.
  • They diverge on capability: Rezdy covers Session and capacity management, RoomRaccoon covers Property management.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Rezdy

  • Rezdy, Checkfront and Regiondo have shared an owner since 2023, so an operator running a three-way comparison is choosing between products from one company with one roadmap.
  • Every tier carries a percentage booking fee on top of the subscription, so the cheapest plan is the most expensive per booking and the true cost rises with success rather than staying fixed.
  • The marketplace is the main reason to be there, and its reseller depth varies sharply by destination; in a market with few connected agents you are paying a distribution premium for nothing.
  • Setting up complex products with shared resources across sessions is fiddly, and operators regularly need vendor assistance rather than configuring it unaided.
  • Payment processing is layered on top of the booking fee, so the effective take on each reservation is materially higher than the advertised percentage suggests.

RoomRaccoon

  • Revenue and upselling functionality is gated behind higher tiers, so the advertised entry price is rarely what a property that wants automated pricing actually pays.
  • The integration catalogue is short compared with the larger cloud platforms, and a property with an existing spa, POS or CRM preference may find no connector exists.
  • Multi-property management is workable but shallow, so a group beyond a handful of hotels will hit reporting and consolidated inventory limits.
  • Support hours follow European and South African time zones, which leaves properties in the Americas and Asia Pacific waiting overnight for anything beyond first-line help.
  • Because distribution, payments and the PMS come from one vendor, a fault or a price rise in any one of them cannot be answered by switching that component alone.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Rezdy: Who owns Rezdy?

Expedition Software Holding, backed by Vertica Capital Partners, which also owns Checkfront and Regiondo following a 2023 rollup.

RoomRaccoon: Does RoomRaccoon charge commission on direct bookings?

No. The booking engine is included in the subscription and direct reservations carry no commission, though card processing fees still apply.

Rezdy: Does Rezdy charge on direct website bookings?

Yes. The booking fee applies to bookings processed through the platform, including those from your own site, on top of card processing.

RoomRaccoon: Is it suitable for a hotel with 150 rooms?

It will run, but the product is designed around independents up to roughly 60 rooms and larger properties will find reporting and group handling thin.

Rezdy: What is the marketplace worth?

It depends entirely on your destination. Where agent and concierge traffic is significant it is the main reason to buy Rezdy; where it is not, the value collapses.

RoomRaccoon: Can it be used as a channel manager only?

Not really. The value is in the bundle, and buying it purely for distribution costs more than a dedicated channel manager.

Rezdy: How much does it really cost per booking?

Add the tier booking fee, roughly 1.75 to 2 per cent, to your card processing rate, then add the monthly subscription spread across your volume.

RoomRaccoon: Which regions does it support best?

Europe first, then South Africa. Coverage in North America and Asia is lighter on local OTAs and payment methods.
